————————
After nearly two years of waiting, “Hacks” Season 3 is finally making its grand return to Max. The reason behind the delay? Well, it’s been a wild ride. Lead actress Jean Smart had to undergo heart surgery back in February 2023, which understandably put things on hold. Then there were those pesky strikes from the WGA and SAG-AFTRA that just added to the delay. But fear not, fans, because the wait is over, and a fresh batch of episodes filled with the show’s signature blend of comedy and drama is on its way.
So, mark your calendars for May 2, because that’s when the fun begins. But wait, there’s a slight change in the airing schedule this time around. Instead of dropping all the episodes at once, they’re releasing two episodes every week, leading up to the big season finale on May 30. Here’s the breakdown:
Episodes 1 & 2: Thursday, May 2
Episodes 3 & 4: Thursday, May 9
Episodes 5 & 6: Thursday, May 16
Episodes 7 & 8: Thursday, May 23
Episode 9 (Season Finale): Thursday, May 30
This way, you’ve got almost a month to soak in all the hilarity and drama.
Now, how do you watch? Well, since it’s a Max original series, you’ll find it exclusively on the Max streaming platform. That’s right, no HBO this time around. Here are your subscription options:
Ad-Supported Plan: $9.99 a month, with occasional ad interruptions.
Ad-Free Plan: $15.99 a month, for a smoother viewing experience without any ads.
Ultimate Ad-Free Plan: $19.99 a month, not only ad-free but also lets you stream on up to four devices at once, perfect for family or group viewing.
With those details sorted, get ready to dive back into the world of “Hacks” and enjoy the rollercoaster ride of laughter, drama, and stellar performances.
As for the cast, familiar faces like Jean Smart and Hannah Einbinder are back, ready to continue the captivating story of Deborah Vance and Ava Daniels. Their dynamic, filled with both conflict and camaraderie, remains at the heart of the series.
But that’s not all. There are some new faces joining the mix, adding even more depth to the story. With characters like Deborah’s daughter DJ, played by Kaitlin Olson, and Ava’s ex-girlfriend Ruby, portrayed by Lorenza Izzo, there’s plenty of new dynamics to explore.
